Overview

• Hadag officially named its third hybrid ferry, the Grasbrook, in a ceremony on July 14, 2025.
• The Grasbrook arrived in Hamburg in May after a six-month delivery delay and began operations at the end of that month.
• Its plug-in hybrid propulsion lets the ferry run primarily on electric power while retaining a diesel engine for backup.
• Grasbrook joins two existing hybrids, completing the rollout of three low-emission vessels in Hadag’s 28-ship fleet.
• Traffic Senator Anjes Tjarks said the new ferries support the city’s shift from fossil fuels toward environmentally friendly drives.
